Infrastructure subcommittee

New air-con timer thanks to Daniel - turns off after an hour! should help with power bills in the summer.

Still looking for 3×3 shed - William Knox has offered to purchase/install!!

Video projector has arrived, Anton apparently will also supply mounting.

Gantry crane has not made more progress in light of the lottery west commission.

Building Permit

Initial correspondent: maternity leave

Second correspondent from environmental health / planning (zoning) (Niel Maull): came down to discuss what we're about etc which is good, but we have had to do up a care package so that it doesn't get lost again.

ACTION: Chris and Anton to get the care package compiled and sent next week. prospectus bits are on the wiki but probably need a bit more work.

Lottery West Grant

Daniel has sent off signed forms (secretary should see them going through), will call them back Monday.

Events

1 Noise Maschin!! 16 … turn over 200, expenditure of 100

2 Surprise party as calendared

Private Events

(burnouts, other health and safety concerns raised)

Discussion amongst the committee suggests that we should not do any more private-exclusive-type parties.

We can't just do anything we want in a public building. Doesn't work.

If there's alcohol, there has to be an RSA! insurance, supervision - OTHERWISE WE'RE 'HOSED'.

Ultimately the membership is in charge and events should be acceptable/accessible to the membership.

Many event requests are put forward because they are in line with what we do.

Impossible to police. Too much of an administrative burden.

Potential Audio Vault Sun-downer - wanted one in a few weeks but building permit etc has put it on hold.

Cleanup Event - after the Beaufort st festival in 2 weeks - enough time to put the call out on core list 'can we chuck this, this etc'

ArduinoU is continuing, Doug is doing a great job!

Geek Haven is continuing, one planned this week.
